DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

Overview

A vehicle control system performs an instruction or cancellation of avehicle operation based on an operation instruction or an operationprohibition instruction with respect to a terminal device mounted on auser. Alternatively, the vehicle control system performs human bodycommunication via the user having the terminal device mounted thereon tocontrol the vehicle operation. Therefore, it is possible to furtherreduce a likelihood of the operation of the vehicle being executed by athird party.

Hereinafter, each embodiment will be described in detail with referenceto the drawings.

First Embodiment

Configuration

FIG. 1 illustrates a functional block diagram of a vehicle controlsystem 11 according to the first embodiment. The vehicle control system11 includes a terminal device 110 and a vehicle 210.

The terminal device 110 is a small device including an ear mounting unitthat is a mounted on an ear of a user. The terminal device 110 includesa user identification unit 111, an output unit 112, an input unit 113,an operation instruction unit 114, a notification unit 115, a firstverification unit 116, and a first communication unit 117. The outputunit 112 includes a speaker capable of emitting sound to an external earcanal (hereinafter referred to as an earhole) of the user. The inputunit 113 includes an identification microphone that collects acousticreflected sound in the earhole of the user, and an utterance microphonethat collects uttered sound of the user. The input unit 113 has afunction of recognizing voice from the collected uttered sound of theuser. The vehicle 210 includes an operation controller 211, a secondverification unit 212, and a second communication unit 213. Each of theterminal device 110 and the vehicle 210 may have a controller thatappropriately controls an operation of each of the above-describedunits. The notification unit 115 generates content of notification forthe user as voice or the like, and causes the output unit 112 to outputthe notification.

Process

FIG. 2 is a sequence diagram illustrating a process of the vehicle 210and the terminal device 110. This process will be described withreference to FIG. 2.

Step S101: The terminal device 110 performs earhole identification. Theearhole identification may be performed when the terminal device 110 ismounted on the ear and may be then performed periodically or may beperformed before any operation each time the terminal device 110performs the operation. The user identification unit 111 of the terminaldevice 110 emits an identification sound from the output unit 112 to theear canal, acoustic reflected sound of the identification sound isacquired by the identification microphone of the input unit 113, andcharacteristics of the acoustic reflected sound are compared withcharacteristics of an acoustic reflected sound of the user registered inadvance to identify user. In the case of identification failure, thesubsequent processes are not performed and this sequence is ended. Theidentification sound may be a sound in an audible band or may be a soundin an inaudible band such as ultrasonic waves. In the case of the soundin the audible band, the user can recognize that the identificationprocess is performed through the sound. In the case of the sound in theinaudible band, a notification may be sent to the user by voice such as“the identification is performed” before the identification process.

Step S102: When the terminal device 110 enters a range in whichcommunication with the vehicle 210 is possible, the first communicationunit 117 of the terminal device 110 performs wireless communication withthe second communication unit 213 of the vehicle 210, for example, uponreception of a radio signal periodically transmitted by the vehicle 210.FIG. 3 illustrates an example of a range 500 in which the vehicle 210and the terminal device 110 can wirelessly communicate with each other.The range 500 is, for example, in a range of about 10 m or less from thevehicle. The wireless communication may be controlled by the firstverification unit 116 of the terminal device 110 and the secondverification unit 212 of the vehicle 210, and collation may be performedas to an identifier of the terminal device 110 matches a regularidentifier registered in the vehicle 210 in advance throughcommunication to perform verification. Alternatively, collation may beperformed as to an identifier of the vehicle 210 matches a regularidentifier registered in the terminal device 110 in advance to performverification. In the case of verification failure, subsequent processesare not performed and this sequence is ended.

Step S103: When the verification in step S102 is successful, thenotification unit 115 of the terminal device 110 drives the output unit112 to perform a notification to the user. Accordingly, the user canrecognize that the terminal device 110 has entered the range in whichcommunication with the vehicle 210 is possible. A method of thenotification is not limited. The notification may be performed by avoice that is output from the speaker of the output unit 112, or theoutput unit 112 may include a vibrator and perform the notificationthrough vibration. Voice is easier to understand, but the voice isannoying when the voice is frequent, and therefore, a degree ofvibration felt by the user may be used. Either the voice or thevibration may be selected by the user.

Step S104: When the user receives the notification, the user issues aninstruction to execute a predetermined operation of the vehicle 210. Theinstruction can be made, for example, by uttering predetermined wordssuch as “unlock a door” or “open a door”. The voice is input to theutterance microphone of the input unit 113 of the terminal device 110.The operation instruction unit 114 of the terminal device 110 receivesthe input predetermined words as an operation instruction for thevehicle. Here, the same earhole identification as in step S101 may beperformed and identification of the uttering user may be performed.

Step S105: The operation instruction unit 114 of the terminal device 110transmits a signal indicating the received operation instruction to thevehicle 210 via the first communication unit 117.

Step S106: The operation controller 211 of the vehicle 210 receives thesignal indicating the operation instruction from the operationinstruction unit 114 of the terminal device 110 via the secondcommunication unit 213 and executes an operation such as door unlockingaccording to the signal. The sequence is then ended.

Effects

According to the above process, the user can recognize that the terminaldevice 110 enters the range in which communication with the vehicle 210is possible and that the operation of the vehicle according to thisembodiment can be executed. Thereafter, the user can cause the vehicleto execute the operation by performing utterance to the mounted terminaldevice 110. Accordingly, even when a communicable area is wider than inthe related art, it is possible to further reduce a likelihood that athird party near the vehicle causing the vehicle to execute theoperation.

Second Embodiment

Configuration

FIG. 4 is a functional block diagram of a vehicle control system 12according to a second embodiment. The vehicle control system 12 includesa terminal device 120 and a vehicle 220. The terminal device 120 has thesame functional block configuration as the terminal device 110 in thefirst embodiment. The vehicle 220 further includes a manipulationdetection unit 224 in the vehicle 210 according to the first embodiment.Hereinafter, differences between the second embodiment and the firstembodiment will be mainly described, and description of the same orcorresponding features will be omitted or simplified.

Process

FIG. 5 is a sequence diagram illustrating a process of the vehicle 220and the terminal device 120. This process will be described withreference to FIG. 5.

Step S201: The terminal device 120 identifies the user through earholeidentification, as in step S101 of the first embodiment.

Step S202: When the terminal device 120 enters a range in whichcommunication with the vehicle 220 is possible, the terminal device 120and the vehicle 220 perform wireless communication with each other andperform identification, as in step S102 of the first embodiment.

Step S203: The notification unit 115 of the terminal device 120 notifiesthe user that the verification in step S202 has been successful, as instep S103 of the first embodiment.

Step S204: A case in which, in this step to step S208, the user performsa predetermined manipulation such as touching a door handle with respectto the vehicle 220 with intention of causing the vehicle to perform anoperation such as door unlocking will be described. In this step, whenthe user performs the predetermined manipulation, the manipulationdetection unit 224 of the vehicle 220 detects the manipulation.

Step S205: The manipulation detection unit 224 of the vehicle 220transmits a signal indicating that the predetermined manipulation hasbeen performed via the second communication unit 213 and notifies theterminal device 120 of the fact. The operation instruction unit 114 ofthe terminal device 120 receives the signal via the first communicationunit 117.

Step S206: The operation instruction unit 114 of the terminal device 120causes the notification unit 115 to execute notification to the useraccording to the signal received in step S205. For example, when thepredetermined manipulation is a touch manipulation with respect to thedoor handle, the notification unit 115 outputs a voice “unlock the door”or “Please perform a stop action when you want to stop unlocking” inaddition to this from the speaker of the output unit 112. Through thisstep, when a manipulation not intended by the user is performed on thevehicle, the user can be reliably notified of this, but when the thirdparty is nearby, this can be noticed and the notification is annoying tosome users. Therefore, this step may be omitted. The notification may beexecuted through vibration. It may be able to be customized by userwhether or not the notification is executed.

Step S207: The operation instruction unit 114 of the terminal device 120waits for a predetermined prohibition instruction to be input from theuser for a predetermined period from the notification in step S206. Theprohibition instruction input will be described below. The operationcontroller 211 of the vehicle 220 also waits for the same period as inthe operation instruction unit 114. The operation instruction unit 114may cause the user identification unit 111 to execute the same earholeidentification as in step S201 and perform identification of the user.It is desirable for the predetermined period to be, for example, equalto or greater than 0.5 seconds and equal to or smaller than one second.

Step S208: Since there is no prohibition instruction that is input fromthe user for a predetermined period in this step, the vehicle 220executes the operation of the vehicle according to the predeterminedmanipulation detected in step S204. The sequence is then ended.

Step S214: In this step to step S218, a case where a third party otherthan the user is near the vehicle and performs a predeterminedmanipulation such as touching of a door handle with respect to thevehicle 220 with intention of causing the vehicle to perform anoperation such as door unlocking without a legitimate right or a casewhere the user cancels the operation of the vehicle based on theabove-described manipulation when the user or the third partyaccidentally or erroneously performs the above-described manipulationwill be described. In this step, when the predetermined manipulation asdescribed above is performed, the manipulation detection unit 224 of thevehicle 220 detects the manipulation, as in step S204.

Step S215: The manipulation detection unit 224 of the vehicle 220transmits a signal indicating that the predetermined manipulation hasbeen performed and notifies the terminal device 120 of the fact, as instep S205.

Step S216: The operation instruction unit 114 of the terminal device 120causes the notification unit 115 to execute a notification to the user,as in Step S206.

Step S217: The operation instruction unit 114 of the terminal device 120waits for a predetermined prohibition instruction to be input from theuser for a predetermined period from the notification in step S216. Theoperation instruction unit 114 of the terminal device 120 may performthe identification of the user by causing the user identification unit111 to execute the earhole identification, as in step S207. In thisstep, since the user does not intend to operate the vehicle, theoperation instruction unit 114 performs a prohibition instruction. Theprohibition instruction can be performed, for example, by utteringpredetermined words such as “Do not unlock the door”. The voice is inputto the utterance sound microphone of the input unit 113 of the terminaldevice 120. A method of inputting the instruction is not limited theretoand, for example, when the input unit 113 includes a motion sensor, theuser can perform the instruction input through an operation of shakinghis or her head twice.

Step S218: The operation instruction unit 114 of the terminal device 120transmits a signal indicating the received prohibition instruction tothe vehicle 220 via the first communication unit 117. The operationcontroller 211 of the vehicle 220 receives a signal indicating anoperation instruction from the operation instruction unit 114 of theterminal device 110 via the second communication unit 213 and cancels anoperation such as door unlocking based on a manipulation such as thetouch of the door handle received in step S214 according to the signal.The sequence is then ended.

Effects

According to the above process, the user can recognize that the terminaldevice 120 enters a range in which communication with the vehicle 220 ispossible and that the operation can be executed by the manipulation withrespect to the vehicle according to the present embodiment. Even when apredetermined manipulation is performed by a third party, the user cancancel the operation of the vehicle according to the manipulation of thethird party. Accordingly, even when a communicable area is wider than inthe related art, it is possible to further reduce a likelihood that athird party near the vehicle causing the vehicle to execute theoperation.

Third Embodiment

Configuration

FIG. 6 is a functional block diagram of a vehicle control system 13according to a third embodiment. The vehicle control system 13 includesa terminal device 130 and a vehicle 230. The terminal device 130 doesnot include the operation instruction unit 114 in the terminal device110 according to the first embodiment, and further includes a firsthuman body communication unit 137. The vehicle 230 further includes asecond human body communication unit 235 in the vehicle 210 according tothe first embodiment. Hereinafter, differences between the thirdembodiment and the first embodiment will be mainly described, anddescription of the same or corresponding features will be omitted orsimplified.

Process

FIG. 7 is a sequence diagram illustrating a process of the vehicle 230and the terminal device 130. This process will be described withreference to FIG. 7.

Step S301: The terminal device 130 identifies the user through earholeidentification, as in step S101 of the first embodiment.

Step S302: When the terminal device 130 enters a range in whichcommunication with the vehicle 220 is possible, the terminal device 130and the vehicle 230 perform wireless communication with each other andperform verification, as in step S102 of the first embodiment.

Step S303: The notification unit 115 of the terminal device 130 notifiesthe user that the verification in step S302 has been successful, as instep S103 of the first embodiment.

Step S304: When the user performs a predetermined manipulation, thesecond human body communication unit 235 of the vehicle 230 detects themanipulation.

The second human body communication unit 235 has an electrode providedat a position with which the user comes into contact according tovarious manipulations, such as a door handle, an engine startup switch,or a brake pedal.

Step S305: The first human body communication unit 137 of the terminaldevice 130 has an electrode that comes into contact with the ear of theuser or the like in a state in which the user has the terminal device130 mounted thereon (or, an electrode located very close to the ear orthe like without coming into contact with the ear or the like).Therefore, when the user performs a predetermined manipulation in stepS302, a path of human body communication in which a body of the user isused as a communication path is formed between the first human bodycommunication unit 137 and the second human body communication unit 235.In this step, the terminal device 130 and the vehicle 230 performverification through human body communication. The verificationincludes, for example, a notification of an identification result insteps S301 and S302 or a new verification process between the terminaldevice 130 and the vehicle 230 using human body communication. Earholeidentification may be performed again in this step. When theidentification as described above fails, subsequent processes are notexecuted and the sequence is ended.

Step S306: When the verification is successful in step S305, theoperation controller 211 of the vehicle 230 executes an operation suchas door unlocking based on the predetermined manipulation performed instep S302. The sequence is then ended.

Effects

According to the above process, the user can recognize that the vehicle230 is nearby according to the terminal device 130 entering the range inwhich communication with the vehicle 230 is possible. Since theverification through human body communication with the vehicle can beperformed according to a predetermined manipulation of the user havingthe terminal device 130 mounted thereon, it is possible to furtherreduce a likelihood of a third party near the vehicle causing thevehicle to execute an operation even when the communicable area is widerthan in the related art.

Since the verification between the terminal device 130 and the vehicle230 can be performed through the human body communication in step S304,step S302 may be omitted when the notification in step S303, that is,the notification of the fact that the vehicle is nearby is not needed.In this case, the wireless communication is not needed.

In each of the above-described embodiments, the door unlocking has beendescribed as an example of the operation of the vehicle that is acontrol target, but the embodiment is not limited thereto, and variousoperations such as door locking, engine startup, opening of a trunk, andopening of a fuel filler port may be control targets for furtherimprovement of convenience.
